more. >> the president's right about one thing. >> we're left with a stalemate. >> his reminder ron old regan and george w. bush repeatedly signed increases in the debt ceiling was met with a quick response. >> more spending and more debt is business as usual. well i've got news for washington. significant action is taken now. >> he blamed the president. >> the president wanted a blank check six months ago and he wants a blank check today. this is just not going to happen. >> the two men are supporting different plans. senate democrats and house republicans came up with competing plans when bipartisan talks broke down and partisan finger pointing resumed. >> republicans are more interested trying to embarrass the president than doing what's right for the country. >> the senate plan raises the debt ceiling through the end of 2012 and cuts 2.7 trillion from domestic and defense spending. >> i believe that the plan is full of gimmicks. we're not making any real

changes in the spending structure of our government and it doesn't deal with the biggestdrivers of our deficit and our debt and that would be entitlement programs. >> so the house plan would raise the debt ceiling for only seven months coupled with 1.7 trillion in spending cuts, create a bipartisan commission that would try to find another 1.8 trillion and another vote to raise the debt ceiling after that. >> it doesn't solve the problem. >> the president says it would mean another showdown in months. he says the public is fed up. >> they're fed up with a town where compromise has become a dirty word. >> then, this. >> i'm asking all to make your voice heard. if you want a balanced approach to reducing the deficit, let your member of congress know. if you believe we can solve this problem through compromise, send that message. >> the president clearly hopes public pressure will move some in congress who have their heals dug in and knows that

works which overseas vehicle auctions says it's looking into this. they also say the vehicle is not normally auctioned off for at least 28 days and that would be after an owner has accrued at least two unpaid parking tickets. dpw alleges jenkins has three unpaid tickets. she disputes that number. in response to the casey anthony trial a new law in honor of her deceased daughter is gaining momentum and not just in florida. >> caylee's law would make it a felony of a parent fails to report a child missing within 24 hours and one local lawmaker is looking into that idea after getting and we quote an "almost unprecedented number of e-mails asking for it." >> reporter: folks took to their computers for signing a petition and then e-mailing their state senator. senator janet howell received 400 messages from her constituents all urging her to enact caylee's law. >> it says that we would even have to take that step that it

reporting missing children." >> if there is a gap, we should go but it should not need to be any requirement because any sensible parent will go ahead and report a lost child immediately. >> now, senator howell also chairs the virginia state crime commission and she tells us she has asked them to look into a local version of the bill which would likely be introduced in january. nearly 30 other states are also considering adopting caylee's law including maryland. anita, derek? >> thank you. now, why did a teenager take a baby from baltimore and how did she manage to make her way down to d.c. regardless of the answers the family is just happy that child is back home tonight. police say seven month old kewan went missing on friday and they found him with 16 year old jonet booser at a bus stop this morning. he was then reunited with his mom, 20 year old whitney mcgee
